Question Talkback, cut or not 2 cut?

Alot of help guides tell you to cut Talkback and others tell you to have the lowest subscription. I know talkback talks back but what all does it say? Do you need to cut if you have the subscription?

Aidso.it tells the cable co. exactly what your watching and if ur not paying for what ur watching they will be able to tell.
If I were u mate I would get myself a nickname and take my email address off as a username....unless its a dud email address

To the OP.
I would deffo cut talkback. You can assure that your box will not phone home and tell the cable co what your watching and that its a chipped box.
Some people get away with it, but its one more easy step for that nock on ur door from the police and virgin.
Either way you only want talkback on for the on demand but most of the time it will get blacklisted :\

you shouldnt touch your subbed box, if so your asking for trouble but cut it on a 2nd box is the way to go.

welshcake dont cut your talkback off your chipped V+ box as the box will keep resetting and will be a pain. so just get a 50DB noise blocker they sell em on ebay for around £9 and they will do the trick
